ROBIN WILSON

Archiving a Moment Captured in Time

Many (many) years ago, a young Robin Wilson saved his money to buy professional paints at his local art store. The storekeeper, taken by Robin’s passion, told him to capture every moment in life that he could - to store those moments as snapshots as if he had a camera in his head.

With little avenues to pursue art professionally and a need to support himself in his young adult life, Robin travelled across the UK as a musician and a teacher. But every moment in time was captured by the camera in Robin’s head – set aside for a later date, when he could finally do them justice.

Today, Robin’s collection of work boasts his favourite archived moments over the years. He hopes his work will help his audience reminiscence about time gone by, discover memories filed away, and appreciate those moments in their life that should not be forgotten.
